With this project I was able to finally turn some of my old chalkboards into magnetic whiteboards! With this new whiteboard space, I am able to quickly and easily display student work, academic instructions, or helpful posters with skills we are focusing on. The whiteboards has also made our wall calendar area for morning meeting time. We are able to display our full monthly calendar, count the days of school, and discuss whether the current number of the day is even or odd. All of this would not be possible without your generous donations. So once again, thank you!
